Email to Calendar
What Sense pulls from an email
When you forward an email, Sense reads it the way a parent would - skimming for what actually matters to your household and turning it into tidy calendar items.
What it looks for
- Events - anything with a date, plus a time and place where it can find them.
- Reminders - things to do before a date, like returning a permission slip, paying a deposit, or packing a costume.
- Who it's for - matched to your family members when the email names a child, class, or team.
It reads like a parent, not a robot
Sense builds events the way you'd perceive them, not as a literal copy of the email's layout. A single school newsletter might become three clean events and one reminder - and it keeps only what's relevant to your kids, dropping the parts about other families' children.
No duplicates
Forwarding the same email twice, or two parents forwarding the same one, won't clutter your calendar - Sense recognizes it's the same message. And when a follow-up email updates a plan (a new time, a moved date), Sense updates the existing event instead of adding a second one.
Attachments count too. Sense reads dates out of PDFs and images, so a flyer photographed and forwarded still becomes real events.
